Microservices Routing with Nginx and Health Checks

This project demonstrates:

• Two microservices (Go and Flask) exposing simple /ping and /hello endpoints
• Nginx reverse proxy for clean routing (/service1/ and /service2/)
• Health checks to verify that the services are up before allowing traffic
• docker-compose setup for seamless orchestration
